Bedroom big, well equipped, comfy bed. Towels big, white and fluffy.

Hostess was very attentive and very helpful without being annoying. Kindly let us have room for an hour longer as we were getting ready for a wedding. Cleaner was great too and very friendly. A very homely and pleasant experience. Great comfy bed and loads of hot water.

We arrived at property 10.30 in morning and left car and walked to the aqueduct and then back to Linlithgow a total of 8 miles. Came back to a lovely afternoon tea a great nights sleep and a fantastic Scottish breakfast. Would recommend

This property has been on Booking.com since 25 Apr 2012.

Only a customer who has booked through Booking.com and stayed at the property in question can write a review. This lets us know that our reviews come from real guests, like you. Who better to tell others about the free breakfast, friendly staff, or quiet room than someone who’s stayed at the property before?

We want you to share your story, both the good and the bad. All we ask is that you follow a few simple guidelines.

Tips for writing a great review

Give us details. People love to hear about the details. Was the air-conditioning working? Was there a chocolate on your pillow? We like long reviews and suggest you write at least 50 words.

Be candid. Give us your honest opinion. We’ll never remove a review just because it’s negative. That's our promise to you.

Be relevant. The best reviews provide constructive information that helps other travellers to make better choices. Stay on topic and avoid content that others might find offensive.

We will sometimes remove reviews if they include the following:

Objectionable material. This includes insulting or discriminatory remarks, swearing or offensive language.

Private information. To protect your privacy (and that of others) we do not display reviews that include email addresses or phone numbers.

Sensitive information. We do not display reviews that contain information with possible legal implications. This includes references to suspected illegal conduct or allusions to lost or stolen items. In such sensitive cases, you should contact Customer Service, who will be happy to help.

Irrelevant topics. This includes promotional content and politically sensitive subjects.

In some rare cases, neither the written review nor the review score can be displayed. This only happens when:

Key information is missing. A few review questions are mandatory. If these aren’t answered, we aren't able to calculate a fair review score, so we can't display the review.

You didn’t stay at the property. When necessary, we’ll confirm this information with both you and the accommodation owner.

You made a mistake. Everyone makes mistakes. We won’t post yours. If you reviewed a different property from the one you booked, let us know. We can fix it so that your review goes with the right property.

The review is a fake. If there is any indication that a review is not authentic or is in any way fraudulent it will be flagged during the moderation process.

I thought it was a hotel so was slightly disappointed to learn they're was no evening meal. However the town is only a short drive away, so no real hardship.

The only thing that let it down was the entrance hall stairs and landing could do with decorating.
The room was cold on arrival could have been warmed it up before we arrived.

We were treated like friends from the moment we arrived. We were there to see the Falkirk Wheel and the Kelpies and this was an excellent base. The eating places Nan recommended in Linlithgow were also fist class.
Excellent breakfast - as vegetarians Nan was particularly attentive and made sure that we were well fuelled up for the day. We would have no hesitation in staying again, or recommending to friends.

Hosts were excellent. Very friendly and helpful. Property is perfect for a romantic retreat or quiet getaway. Room is very large and has a nice view. Cant say enough about Belsyde and its owner/operators.

My only wish was that we could have stayed longer.

The quiet, pastoral, setting was lovely and the house was quite traditional and a beauty!
